Kyru the Half-Saiyan
Saiyan Saga
Chapter 1

In the Wilderness/Wastelands
One Month Later

It seemed like forever for Kyru since her first meeting with Gohan and the time that they would meet Piccolo was slowly drawing near. Kyru, if she was being honest, was extremely nervous at the prospect of meeting him. Curiosity was mixed in with the fear though and as she watched Gohan prepare a fire and began to cook some meat over it.

"Gohan," she finally spoke up, and the slightly older boy (they had found that she was two months younger than him) looked over at her. "Can…can you tell me what happened that lead you to being left out here by Piccolo?"

Gohan stayed silent for a moment before he went into the explanation from being kidnapped by his Uncle Raditz to when he met her.

"What about you?" the boy asked. "Why are you out here?"

Kyru bit her lip, trying to keep her tears at by before she finally told him what had happened during that fateful night. Once she was finished, she had tears streaming down her face. Gohan responded with pulling the younger into his embrace. Deep within the boy's mind, he made a vow to himself, to always be there for her.

She pulled away from him and took a deep breath, rubbing away the tears before looking at Gohan with determination. "Gohan, I promise that I'm going to fight by your side, no matter what. You're stuck with me."

Piccolo watched the two kids from high above, his arms crossed, and his face held its familiar scowl. He had noticed the girl's energy almost immediately when he went to check up on Gohan, and from what he felt and saw, she was just dead weight.

His keen ears twitched when he heard the last part of the conversation, which made him scoff.

"Yeah, like a little girl would make any difference in the battle." His cape swayed behind him as he floated in the air. He looked up over at the setting sun.

"Well, least I got rid of her trigger to her transformation."

Gohan was now ate the now cooked meat while Kyru sat across from him, eating her own slab. The boy was telling Kyru all about his dad and how great he is and Kyru felt a little envious while listening to Gohan, wishing she had a parent like that. She shook her head when Gohan finished his food, her finishing her own just a few seconds after him.

"Hey Gohan, wanna spar?" Kyru asked, her tail swaying behind her. Gohan looked up at her, blinking slightly.

"You sure?"

"Yeah, we have to get ready and training is a good way too. Don't hold back either." she grinned as she got up and Gohan hasently got up as well. They walked a little ways away from their fire and got into a fighting stance and both stood there for a moment.

Gohan made the first move, charging forward. Even if he's not so knowledgeable at fighting, he had watched his dad train countless of times out in the woods.

He threw a punch at Kyru who caught it. He tried to do a roundhouse kick, getting her in the side, making her let go. He landed on the ground and saw that it was Kyru who is charging now. He got ready and dodged a fury of punches.

Piccolo watched the sparing match keenly. He saw that Gohan at least knows how to fight. The girl on the other hand seemed to have some experience in fighting, which surprised him. Maybe she wouldn't be useless after all...but she still needed some more training before she is even close to be ready for the upcoming battle.

Soon, he will begin to train them. Soon, he will see what the two are really made of.
