Chapter 17

Tien decided to reverse all that he did, he couldn't bring back her parents but he could try to make her happy. After the ceremony all he could think about was how beautiful her laughter sounded to his ears, he really loved it when she laughed, her laughter was like pealing bells. He apparently changed and now Master Roshi took him on as a student, he had felt lonely in the past but now his heart felt filled. His eyes shifted to the beautiful woman walking a few feet from him now, he had wanted to kill her before, but now he could look at her without absolute loathing in his eyes. He was content.

"Oh! I forgot my grandpa's dragonball and power pole back at the tournament grounds!", Goku said.

"Oh no worries Goku! I'll get them for you.", Krillin said as they paused in front of the restaurant.

"Well...okay.", Goku said.

"Hurry back before Goku eats everything!", Kitsuma yelled as Krillin got further away.

"Don't worry about me!", Krillin responded.

The group entered the restaurant, they placed their orders and sat down, and a little while later the food arrived. Kitsuma noticed Goku picking at his food, he had never done that before, Kitsuma was about to ask but Yamcha beat her to it.

"Goku whats wrong? I've never seen leftovers on your plate.", Yamcha commented as Goku got up.

Kitsuma followed him all the way to the tournament grounds. She had read the kid's mind and saw a disturbing and gruesome sight, Krillin lay dead and beside him was Goku's power pole. The announcer was on the ground unconscious, but still alive. Kitsuma woke him up.

"Please don't kill me.", the announcer whined.

"Your fine, you were lucky you survived.", Kitsuma said soothingly. Tien wished she sounded like that when she talked to him, he was somewhat jealous.

"Ki...Kitsuma?", the announcer asked, Kitsuma coated her hands with a healing energy and healed the announcer as best as she could. Tien was in shock, she knew how to heal, where did she learn it?
"How did you do that?", Tien asked.

"Another ability I was born with.", Kitsuma said.

"Can you heal me too?", Tien asked. He wondered what her hand would feel like against her chest.

"Sure!", Kitsuma said with a little grin. Kitsuma put her hand on Tien's chest and waited. When she felt his energy rise back up to normal she stopped. Tien looked at Kitsuma, he felt something rise in his chest. Tien watched as she took a few things out of her bag, one was a jar of some type of goop he'd never seen before and a ball of torn cloth.

"Whats that for?", Yamcha asked as he pointed to the jar.

"Its supposed to preserve and make this dead body smell better.", Kitsuma replied.

"Bulma may I have the dragon radar?", Goku asked as she took it out, he ran over there and grabbed it out of her hand, and ran off. While Kitsuma was wrapping up Krillin's dead body, Oolong discovered a clue, it was a paper with the word devil circled. Tien watched as Kitsuma applied the goop with a brush around Krillin's body.

"Hey guys! Look what I found!", said Oolong.

"What is it?", Yamcha asked.

"Not sure, but it has the word devil circled.", Oolong said.

"Wait, let me take a look at that!", Kitsuma said snatching the paper out of Oolong's hands.

"N...no I...it can't be!", Kitsuma stuttered, shaking in fear. Tien had never seen a face so terrified in his life.

"What is it?", Tien asked Gruffly.

"Its the crest of King Piccolo!", Kitsuma said out loud.
