Uh. . . this one is a bit short. xD I'm trying to write different stories and trying to update some of my own. ;-; But I have writer's block. ;D


Tien landed in the midst of a forest, trying to find clear space so he could meditate. Kitsuma pushed a shrub leaf aside and made her way through, following Tien. Finally, they found a place where there was enough room.

"So what are we doing here?" Kitsuma asked as she sat down, along with Tien.

"I'm going to meditate," Tien said as he crisscrossed his legs.

Kitsuma's eyes grew wide. Meditate? What good would that do in a fight? "Why do you need to meditate?" she asked, trying to keep her temper at bay.

"I told you, you didn't have to come," Tien said as he closed his eyes and put his hands together.

Kitsuma's eye twitched, but she did not get into the position Tien was in. After 30 minutes or so, Tien was slowly elevating and it took another hour to see electricity flicking off him.

What is he doing? Kitsuma thought as she dodged the electric bolt that attempted to touch her leg. Kitsuma leaped back, trying to get some cover behind the bushes. This type of meditating was not the ones Kitsuma was familiar with. She thought it was supposed to be calm, but instead, Tien is shooting off lightning!

Kitsuma didn't want to bother him, so she just sat down and watched. Sooner or later, she fell asleep, but Tien was still at it.

Bulma landed and saw Sitsuki and Nankaski with gel all over their faces.

"Ha! I win," Nankaski said as he pointed to his face in victory.

What the heck are they doing? Bulma thought as she slid down the side of the aircraft.

"Hey, Sitsuki. Hi, Nankaski," Bulma said as she walked over. She saw Tien's companion on the floor, 100% sure that he was gone. Bulma's eyes searched around the area, trying to find more bodies, but only saw Roshi's. "Only two? Wow, Kitsuma got me really freaked. C'mon boys, haul them in the back."

Sitsuki and Nankaski looked at each other like the girl was crazy.

"Well? A small, fragile, pretty girl like me can't hold up so much weight," Bulma cooed as she made puppy eyes. Both boys sighed and began taking one person.

"I call Chiaotzu!" Nankaski shouted.

"No, I won, so I get to pick and I want Chiaotzu," Sitsuki yelled as he tried to pick up Chiaotzu.

Bulma closed her eyes and gritted her teeth. A vein was pulsing on the side of her head. All of the sudden, this innocent little girl was a vicious, mean, old woman.

"WOULD YOU GUYS JUST SHUT UP AND GET THEM IN THE PLANE?! SHEESH! I SHOULD'VE JUST LEFT YOU GUYS HERE!" Bulma screamed.

Nankaski and Sitsuki stopped and furrowed their brows. Sitsuki held Chiaotzu by the arms and Nankaski by the legs. Together, they brought both Master Roshi and Chiaotzu in the airplane.

"Finally! I was getting a sunburn out there! Do you know how delicate I am?" Bulma asked sharply.

Sitsuki and Nankaski groaned in the backseat. This was going to be a long way back to the hidden Kame House.

Kitsuma's eyes slowly opened, but it was clear she was still tired. She propped herself up and rubbed her eye, her vision still blurry from sleep.

"Tien?" Kitsuma asked softly. She doubted he had heard her, but he did. Tien opened his eyes and looked over at Kitsuma.

"What's wrong?" he asked worriedly.

"I thought of something."

"What is it?"

"I heard of a myth about something called Sacred Water. It makes you stronger."

"Stronger?" Tien asked.

"Yes," Kitsuma replied, "It's on Korin's Tower. I think Goku climbed it."

"Kitsuma, I don't think we have time."

"You don't have time!" Kitsuma snapped. "I do! I'm going to climb that tower. I can't sit here and watch you meditate! It's boring!" Kitsuma jumped to her feet. In the blink of an eye, she ran off in the direction of Korin's Tower.

Tien shook his head, not knowing what to do. He had a feeling that it would take days to climb it. They didn't have days. They didn't even have a second. King Piccolo was already out in the world, demolishing cities.

I'm sorry, Kitsuma, I can't leave. I must continue my training. Chiaotzu needs to be avenge, Tien thought guiltily, not sending it out telepathically.

Kitsuma had her game face on and she was running a little too slow. She was expecting to see Tien behind her, but she sensed nothing.

Fine, if he won't come with me, then I'll just have to climb it by myself, Kitsuma thought as a tear trailed down her cheek. She quickly wiped it off. She didn't want to cry, but the tears came flooding out, like a broken dam.
