Lonely Fate
One
guards the Time Gate for all eternity,
the other thinks he is too
different to love.
Piccolo's time machine went wrong and he must
stay with Pluto till he fix it.
Fighting loneliness together, yet
Fate does not agree.
Author's note: You all think Piccolo had a smooth ride while going to get Vegeta? I think not! This story is in my point of view.
Chapter 3
She felt the
evil presense even before the long dark hair wrapped itself around
her neck. Setsuna gasped, she held on to her time key. "Pic-"
she tried crying for Piccolo but her lungs were cut off.
'Piccolo
help me' she screamed silently. Suddenly, a blast of light slammed
into whoever it was behind Setsuna but took Setsuna down with
it.
Setsuna gasped for hair and Piccolo rushed to her.
"Are
you alright?" he growled.
"I'm fine" Setsuna said
inbetween breaths. They both took a look at their attacker and both
gasp outloud in surprise. A girl, with a body and face of no more
than 12 years old was havoring in front of them. The girl's pale face
was twisted with hate and the look in her eye made Setsuna double
think whether she is actually 12 or 200. Dark long hair floats around
the girl like snakes waiting to attack.
Setsuna quickly got up to
face her. "Who are you"
She felt Piccolo right behind
her, she wasn't sure why but she felt safe.
"Time Keeper..."
The girl hissed. Her words came out dragging and hissing like a demon
snake. "Take me to your prinncessss"
"Do you know
her?" Piccolo asked. Setsuna shook her head.
"Than-"
Piccolo stepped in front of Setsuna. "You wouldn't mind me
blasting her away"
He got into his fighting position, shouted
some words and the same blast of light was shooting towards the demon
girl. The girl hissed loudly and screamed when hit. A lock of her
long dark hair shooted out and knocked Piccolo far away. Before
Setsuna could do anything, long dark hair wrapped around her again .
Within a split second the girls face was pressed against
Setsunas.
"Your prinncesss will paaay" she hissed into
Setsuna's ears. "I'll make sure she paaaysss"
The time
key was snatched away from Setsuna before she could do anything. The
Time Gate opened as soon as the key was pointed at it.
"NO-"
Setsuna tried to scream but the girl disappeared into the gate as
soon as it opened. Gasping on all fours, she felt like she failed.
Hell, she did fail. "Setsuna!" Piccolo appeared at her
side. "Are you hurt"
"T-That girl, she disppeared
into the gate! She wanted to hurt the princess! Oh my goddess-"
Setsuna grasped Piccolo's hand hard. "I must go to them"
Piccolo
was stroking her hair softly and Setsuna calmed down a bit.
"There's
nothing to do now except to wait" Piccolo said. "You don't
know how to open the Time Gate"
Setsuna's head shot up and
stared at Piccolo's face. His face is blank. Should she tell him now?
But she must! The princess is in danger!
"I think I almost
got the time machine done" Piccolo continued. "Give me 2
more days the most"
"What if we don't have 2 more days?
What if she reaches the princess"
"Setsuna..." His
voice calmed her once again. She sobbed and fell into his arms. This
wasn't suppose to happen, she has to either admit she lied to him or
risk the princess life. This wasn't suppose to happen.
