ME: Thanks for the reviews! I'm so happy! =) My friend also helped me a little with writing this. We thought it would be funny.
DISCLAIMER: Do I really have to say 'I don't own anything'?"
WARNINGS: Rated T for a reason. Also, those that don't like Dende/OC stories, please don't read this.

"What?" Dende jumped up from the floor. He'd been sitting against his bed with his school books scattered around him when Piccolo had walked in unannounced.
"Gohan told me about a party he suspected you'd be going to. And, judging by your reaction, I see he was right. You've barely spent any time doing you Guardian duties, Dende. And I'm tired of doing your job." Piccolo rumbled, as he stared at the younger Namek.
"But I have to go!" Dende protested, "I told Mana I'd be there."
"Tell her you can't."
"But--"
"No 'buts' Dende. You're not going."
Dende bowed his head and, not looking Piccolo in the face, he said softly, "Fine."
Piccolo nodded, then turned to leave the Guardian's quarters. Dende stood still for a while, then he slowly lifted his head, "Sorry, Piccolo, but I'm going."
Later that night, Dende retired early to his room, bidding goodnight to both Mr. Popo and Piccolo. The older Namekian was going to leave to visit Goku and Chi-Chi in a while, and Dende knew it would be the perfect oppurtunity to sneak out. He waited for Piccolo to leave, then undressed quickly out of his robes. He climbed out his window, floating gently to the ground, when he landed, he took off running silently. Diving off the Lokout, he fell through the air. Damn, he was late already!
Dende sped up and the wind ripped past him. As he flew overhead, he spotted Mana walking by herself to Speeka's house. Landing a few feet away from her, he spoke loudly.
"Why are you walking by yourself?" He grinned when she jumped. Mana punched his arm, and laughed.
"Geez, Dende! Honestly, Green, you could have killed me."
They walked together to Speeka's house. It was on the same street as Mana's, but Dende noticed that Speeka's house was a lot larger. Fairy lights shone brightly. The house looked aflame with light and through the windows Dende could see the shadows of guests.
Music poured out, almost the whole school seemed to be there. People were dancing, talking, laughing and drinking from plastic cups. As they ascended the stone steps, Wade and Speeka ran outside to meet them. Both had a cup in their hands and were laughing hysterically. They also leaned against one another, and Dende noticed that the girls were drunk.
Mana also looked surprised but not for the same reason as Dende, "Wow, this is the earliest they've ever gotten drunk." She glanced at Dende. "No need to get worried, Dende, if we just keep a sharp eye on who we get drinks from, we won't end up puking.
"Have you ever gotten drunk?" Dende asked as they walked through the large doors.
Mana nodded, "Once. But it was an accident. It was about 3 years ago."
Dende tried to imagine Mana drunk and he stifled a laugh, but Mana noticed it and glared mockingly, "You are so mean."
They laughed together, and Mana led Dende to a table, "Water please." She spoke to the bartender. The man nodded, then threw two cold bottles.
Catching them, Mana gave one to Dende, "I'm not exactly sure how safe it is. But, it's still water, I think. . ."
Dende glanced at the liquid, then shrugged, "Doesn't look bad." He lifted the bottle to his mouth and drank a long gulp from it.
About four hours into the night, 1am in the morning, the party calmed down a little more. People had paired off and gone throughout the house, some were lying on the floor, some in the pool and hot tub, and the rest sat in a large circle on the grass in the garden. Beside Dende, Mana hiccuped and drank some more of her 'water'.
She leaned her head against his shoulder, "I feel sick. . ." Then she burst out laughing like a hyena.
Dende grinned and felt him fall to the side, his goofy grin widened as they both fell. In the middle of the circle, Speeka stood speaking loudly, "Dare and Command! Dare and Command!" The chant soon went around the whole circle.
"I'll go first, let's see. . . Wade! Dare or Command?"
Wade looked up drowsily, "Huh?"
"Dare it is!" Speeka thought for a moment, "I dare you to. . . skinny dip in the pond!" She gestured to the Koi fish pond on the side.
Wade stood up, stumbled a little, and undressed. She stood on the short wall that surrounded the pond, then took a deep breath and cannon balled into the water.
Water sprayed over those closest, and Wade clung onto the side of the pond, giggling. "It feels so warm." She glared at each of the teenagers in the circle then pointed at Dende, "You! Your turn!"
So, what's the dare gonna be??? If you want to give an idea for it, then feel free to put it in your review.
