Queen Luana : Not feeling like giving that much of an intro. So enjoy.

Vegeta : Finally a good intro ! Bravo ! (claps)

Queen Luana : Jerk.

Shivers

I smiled happily at the little ball resting in front of me on the table. "One down, six more to go," Yamcha said sinking into the sofa. I said nothing, only observed my reflection. Krillin sat down next to Yamcha, painfully touching his head which was still red.

"Ouch..." he muttered.

Yamcha laughed. "Hey! Now you're a red cueball!"

"Like you should say anything, Cousin It," I said looking at his long wild black hair. He blushed and Krillin sniggered satisfied.

"How do you know cousin It?" Yamcha asked, stroking through his hair.

"I've been spending some time with Trunks," I explained picking up the dragonball. "The Adams Family is his favourite show."

It was true. In a matter of fact, Trunks and I had already gotten pretty close. He was calling me aunt Luana, which I confirmed pretty strange. Just as strange as Vegeta being a dad, actually. I mean, just imagine what it would be like if some kid called me mummy. Weird...

Krillin was still laughing quietly. "Oh, you two go snog some more!" Yamcha cried blushing and ran upstairs. We both burst into laughter, after which Kakarot came in.

"Hi guys!" We both waved. "Guess what, Gohan and I already figured out where the next dragonball is. I'd go and help you find it, but there's this parent meeting at Gohan's school so, you and Yamcha will have to go without us. Here's the dragon-radar-", he handed over the radar to Krillin, "-it's located near lake Silvaplana."

"No kidding," I said surprised. "What a coincidense." (Vegeta: Or the author is just too lazy to do some research for another lake! Queen Luana: Quiet you.)

"Well, I'll see you guys around. Tell master Roshi I said hi!" Kakarot left.

"So, we gonna wait for cousin It to get out of the shower?" I asked as Krillin pressed the button of the dragonradar. He chuckled.

"Course not."

"You know, this lake is actually pretty big..." Krillin mumbled. I nodded staring at the wide water. "Plus it's mountain water," he added and shuddered. "That's not gonna be too comfortable." I nodded and took of my Saiyan armour. Krillin swallowed and stared at me as I waded into the icy cold water, wearing only panties and bra.

I turned to him. "I'll be right back." I dived.

The water indeed was cold, but eh, I had thick skin. Besides, the Zazbanian climate wasn't that hot either. So I was pretty used to it. And the water was very clear as well, so I easily found my way to the bottom. Okay, now what? The lake was huge... I swam around for about three minutes, not a sign of a dragonball. I swam up again, breathing in deeply as the fresh air hit my face.

Krillin was sitting on the shore, rising from the ground when he spotted me. "Nothing," I sighed. "I'm going down again."

"You uh want any help?" he asked. I shrugged and dived again.

Krillin watched the last piece of brown hair disappearing under the surface. He then pulled out his shoes, then his shirt. Just as he was about to take off his belt, he thought for a while. Whatever Yamcha and master Roshi, and maybe even Gohan and Goku were thinking they were wrong. Nothing had happened last night. After Roshi had left he completely blocked. The only reason why he and Luana had come down almost together was because she had gotten up early to take a shower, nothing more to it.

His hands were still clutched around his belt. Finally deciding it would be awkward to swim around a girl in his boxers he left on his pants and went into the cold water as well. He shivered and could swear his lips already turned blue when the water only reached his waist. Darn, how in the world can she swim in her underwear? He thought before breathing in deeply and going under.

I searched the bottom of the lake carefully but not a sight of the next dragonball. When I looked over my shoulder I saw Krillin reaching the bottom as well. I kept on searching and suddenly spotted something in the distance. Swimming closer, I found out it was an under-water cliff. As small yet long opening in the lake's bottom. I turned and beckoned Krillin. We both examined the deep gorge. I could easily fit down it, but not without any scratches, that's for sure.

Krillin swam back to the surface and I followed him. He gasped for breath and I stroke the hair from my face. "You think it's down there?" he asked still panting and water dripping off his chin.

"Only one way to find out right," I said and as I dived under he immediately pulled me back up. I scowled at him. "What?"

"What if you get stuck?" he said.

I laughed sardonicly. "Like that's gonna happen."

"W-well you never know!" he said still panting and whiped the drops of water from his chin.

"Fine! Then you go down and look after me!" I sighed sarcastically and dived under. Krillin moaned and went after me.

The opening was narrower than I thought. At some points I practically had to squeeze myself through them. My arms and legs were already full of cuts because of the sharp rocks, yet I tried to ignore, although the blood sometimes blurred my sight.

Then finally, I saw it. A couple of feet below me I saw the dragonball with the six stars. I clasped it tightly in one hand and then went up again. Krillin carefully helped me out of the opening and together we swam back to the surface. I beamed.

"Yes! The next dragonball is ours!" I climbed out of the water and so did Krillin. I turned to him. "Hey, you okay?"

He was trembling badly, his skin was pale and lips were blue. "Y-yeah I'm-m f-fine," he said, teeth chattering.

"Not used to cold water, huh? Better put your clothes back on." He nodded and with shaking hand picked up his clothes. He then sneezed loudly. "Darn it..."

I raised an eyebrow. "If you were cold you should've just told me," I said.

"Well, m-maybe y-you can, bu-but I-I c-can't talk u-und-der wa-ter..." he stuttered, rubbing his arms and slightly scowling at me. How ironic, first we almost melt and now he's freezing to death.

"Just pull on your clothes," I grunted and pulled on mine as well. He muttered something and got dressed.

When we both had our clothes back on Krillin was still sitting on the ground shaking. "Come on, are you that cold?" I scoffed.

"Well yeah!" he said insulted, his lips still purple.

I sighed. "Let's just go back, you'll get warm after you flew for a while." I took a few steps then turned to him. He was still clamped up and shaking. "Now what?"

"I-I can't move..." he mumbled. I warmed up a ball of energy between my hands.

"You want me to make you move?"

"I'm serious!" he cried, staring at the ball of energy. "I'm supercooled!" I stared at him for a moment, then made the energy-ball fade.

"Supercooled? Are you serious?" He nodded slightly. "So now what? I gotta carry you home?"

"I dunno!" he cried. I moaned annoyed.

"Just wait here, I'll go get some wood to make a fire."

"Oh don't worry! I won't go anywhere!"

A couple of minutes later I had started a fire at his feet. "Feeling any better?" He said nothing. I paced around for a while. So now what? What if I don't get him warmed up or something? Then we could sit here for hours! Maybe even days!

I sat down beside him. "Hey." I laid my hand on his shoulder and quickly redrew it. "God you're cold!" I cried.

"Told you..."

"Here, lie down." I carefully laid him down on the ground, as close to the fire as I could without taking the risc of him being burned. I rubbed over his arm. "Okay, so now what?" I saw the sun lowering behind the mountains. "Oh, great!"

Krillin just gazed blankly into the fire. "Hey! Krillin! Come on, stay awake!" And I don't even have a blanket of some sort! Darn! Darn-darn-darn! Well, I guess there's only one thing I can do...

I lied down close to him, almost shivered myself at feeling his cold body. "Krillin, hey Krillin!" I patted him on the cheek. "Come on, talk to me. You awake?"

"Hmm..."

"Good." We didn't speak for the next minute. "H-hey, why don't you tell me more about yourself, okay?" I asked.

"I don't really feel like it..." he muttered weakly.

"Hey! You speak to me or I'll punch the warmth into you, and believe me, that'll take a while!" He chuckled still as weak as before.

"I'd actually see you do that..."

"Course I would! Heh, we should've asked cousin It along with us. I bet if we shaved his head we could make a nice fur coat out of it. You'd be warm in no time!" We both laughed at the tought of Krillin wearing a coat made out of Yamcha's hair.

"You're lots nicer when you're worried," he then muttered. I looked up from this comment. Was I different in some occasions? "Just a few minutes ago you reminded me of Vegeta..."

"So I do look like him, huh?"

He shrugged. "Sometimes..."

I held his hand. "You're getting warmer."

"Pitty." We stared at each other.

I smiled playfully. "I guess there's one more thing that'd get you warm."

"What's that?"

I pressed my lips onto his cold mouth. "Feeling any better?" I asked.

"No not really..." he mumbled and kissed me again. The last rays of sun were casted over the mountain tops. Soon everything would turn dark. Except for our little spot near the fire.

Queen Luana: I know this chapter didn't really make any sense about how come Krillin suddenly freezed and all, but it's the only thing I could think off. And sorry to all the Yamcha fans about comparing him to cousin It and to all cousin It fans for comparing him to Yamcha. ;) Please review.
