Bulma and Vegeta had rushed out the door to go to the beach, ignoring Marons comments about this proving their going out. They spent the day on the far side of the beach, as far away from where Goku and Chi had settled as possible.

"Oh my God Vegeta, how aren't you freezing in the water" Bulma screeched as yet another cold wave hit her body, she was really starting to resent going to the beach so close to winter.

"What's the matter woman, missing me already" Vegeta called to Bulma, as he stood up. Bulma was too busy staring at his abs to reply; the water clung to his body making it shine and in that moment she felt herself jumping into his arms.

"You know it's rude to leave your date alone, but… I guess there is something you could do to make me forgive you" she whispered into is ear, rapping her legs around his chest and kissing him passionately, she felt his tongue liking her bottom lip asking for entry and without hesitation she obliged. He instantly starting exploring her mouth once more, he was slow, as if trying to commit every detail to memory.

As they broke for air she let a low moan escape her mouth. She pressed her body flush against his, and then resumed the kiss, he could feel his hands moving up and down her body, and then, he stopped.

She looked at him perplexed as he looked around the beach in all directions. "Vegeta what's-" she began only to be shushed by him. He then released her and ran in over the hill next to her. She followed him, but couldn't keep up; when she reached the top of the hill she was out of breath and saw him coming to a stop, next to a tall green man with antennae.

The green guy had a student from their school whimpering in the corner. Vegeta commanded him to leave but instead he laughed. "Do you really thing you can stop me, do you know who I am"

"Actually no" he replied deadpan, completely indifferent to the 2 foot taller man.

"I am the great demon king, I AM KING PICCOLO" he screamed at Vegeta's impassive form.

"And… is that supposed to scare me or something" Vegeta retorted moving closer to the being now known as King Piccolo. Piccolos face went red as he filled with rage, he snarled at Vegeta "How do you think you can stop me, little man" he said condescendingly.

Vegeta foamed over with rage and faster than anyone could see he had punched Piccolo in the gut, making him keel over in pain. The student instantly ran off, not caring to see the result of the fight that would surly begin, he knew of Piccolo from what master Roshi had told him once, he told him that Piccolo could destroy city's with a mere flick of the wrist, he definitely didn't want to be near that.

Vegeta sank into his fighting stance, and Piccolo slowly followed suit. Vegeta took note of the several flaws in his stance, clearly master Roshi had lied about his strength, or… he was mocking him. Vegeta than felt a pang of fear in his stomach, what if the stories were true, what if he lost. No he wouldn't lose, even if he was stronger that master Roshi that didn't make him stronger than him, he was better than Roshi in every way, he would win.

"This is your last chance to surrender"

"More like your last chance to save yourself the pain I'm going to inflict on you when I win"

"Pretty confident for someone who's shoes untied" Vegeta looked down and in instantly Piccolo had begun a barrage of attacks on his form, weak poorly thrown fist after fist hit him straight on and he barley felt it.

Vegeta burst out laughing "So this is the great king Piccolo, destroyer of cities, murderer of thousands, this is your great strength, your amazing battle tactics, saying my shoes unties that attacking with little bitch slaps hahahahaha" Vegeta mocked as he easily blocked and parried all punches and kicks.

Finally Vegeta's boredom grew to be too much for him to handle and he grabbed the next fist, he twisted it to the ground and Piccolo let out a high pitch cry of pain. Bulma had just arrived and seen Vegeta effortless victory. Piccolo saw Vegeta smirk in her direction and took his chance, he quickly kneed Vegeta in the balls and grabbed Bulma in a choke lock.

"Don't even try to move, or the girl gets it" Vegeta stood there, trying to think of a way to save Bulma, then smack she elbowed Piccolo in the chest knocking him of her and into a wall knocking his unconscious.

Bulma ran to Vegeta who tightly embraced her. "Nice shot Bulma" he whispered looking over to where piccolos body was but mere seconds ago but it wasn't there.

Krillin and Maron had gone to the mall, despite his protests and he had spent all day carrying all her bags, just because every time he tried to say no she call him a cutie and hug him tightly. Maron had spent the whole day gossiping about kids in her school he didn't even know and he was board out of his mind, finally the day was over and Maron agreed to capsulize her things and start the walk home.

The walk home wasn't very long but it was next to a busy street, Maron had been flirting with Krillin the whole time- or rather at Krillin, since he was too shy to reply in kind- she constantly giggled no matter what he said.

As they were walking a student in their school came rushing by screaming, he knocked Maron into the path of an oncoming car, and without hesitation Krillin instantly jumped to her threw her to safety, then jumped over the car in one quick fluid movement.

"Oh my God, that actually worked, I could have sworn I would get hit or something but nothing, that was so-" before Krillin could finish gloating a truck hit into him knocking him unconscious. Maron looked on in terror as he twitched on the ground and the driver called for help, this was her fault she should have been hurt not him… not him.
