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.

Piccolo had disappeared, and he had no idea where he was. What was left confused him greatly, where king Piccolo once laid there was now…

A pig, a very beaten up pig lay where Piccolo once was. He slowly pushed Bulma away from him and went to examine the pig, its body was covered in newly formed bruises and cuts, its knuckles had small cuts on them and most significantly there was a deep gash on its forehead, right where Piccolo cut his when he fell down.

"Bulma… do you know what's going on, or how Piccolo became pig." Vegeta asked still staring at the pig confused.

"I don't know, but we should probably get him to the hospital, it looks like he's seriously injured" Bulma meekly replied, moving back into his arms for comfort.

Bulmas phone then rang making her jump slightly, subconsciously Vegeta held her tighter. She slowly got her phone out and saw that it was the Goku calling. "H-hello"

"BULMA QUICK GET TO THE HOSPITAL KRILLINS BEEN HIT BY A TRUCK AND HE'S IN CRTICAL CONDITION HURRY" Goku frantically yelled into the phone.

"Wait Goku calm down, what's going on?" Bulma asked having heard almost none of his original statement.

"KRILLINS BEEN HIT BY A TRUCK AND HE'S IN CRTICAL CONDITION, YOU HAVE TO HURRY" Goku screamed still panicking.

"Ok, I'll be there soon" Bulma replied then hung up. "Krillins been hit by a truck, we need to go hospital now" she yelled throwing out a capsule car and beckoning Vegeta in.

"WAIT, what about this mess" Vegeta indicated to the pig sprawled out across the floor, still unconscious.

"Well, take him to hell I bet he needs to go hospital anyway" she yelled from the driver's seat.

Vegeta looked at the fat bloodied pig indignantly, but in the end knew that he had no choice so he picked the pig up and threw it into the back of the car. "Let's go" before he even closed his door she started driving incredibly fast throwing him back in his seat.

Maron was sitting next to Krillins bed sit crying, her day had started off so well and then this had to happen. She was so full of relief when Krillin jumped over the first car-but she had no idea how he was able to do so- then when he got hit by the truck all of that left her. All that came instead was grief, regret and guilt. She knew this was her fault; she should be in that bed not him.

"You had to be a hero huh?" she asked bitterly. "Y-you had to save Maron b-because she always puts herself in dangeeeeer" Maron then broke down in tears looking at Krillin. She held his hand tightly, hoping that he would squeeze her hands showing he was ok.

But instead… nothing, he just laid there limply. Suddenly Bardock entered the room. "B-Bardock, what are you doing here" Maron asked confused, she didn't even know the 2 had ever met, why would Bardock show up all of a sudden.

"I'm here to check on Krillin, see if he's okay" Bardock said, he realized he shouldn't have let anyone see him, but he hadn't expected the girl to be here still. "You should get some rest, you look exhausted" he said hoping she would leave quickly.

"No I-I can't leave him" she responded moving closer to Krillin as if to protect him from something.

"There's nothing more you can do for him now, you should just go home for a while" Bardock commanded more than asked. For some reason Maron felt she couldn't say no, but at the same time she couldn't just leave Krillin so helpless, she shook her head.

"Well, at least get something to eat, you must be famished, it'll only take a minuet I'll stay with Krillin and you'll feel a lot better if you do eat something" Bardock commanded, he wasn't going to leave without doing what was necessary.

She nodded meekly and slowly left to get sandwich, she turned back and Bardock gave her a warm smile, "don't worry I'll take care of him" he said calmly before turning his attention to Krillin.

5 minutes later Maron return and saw Krillin swallow something, given to him by Bardock then magically he started to heal at an amazing rate, she wanted to question what just happen but was to happy. She ran to his bed sit and Bardock casually walked out having fulfilled his mission he knew it was best to leave as fast as possible.

"Hum, ah Maron, Maron oh God are you ok" Krillin frantically yelled.

"Oh my hero, of course I'm fine Krillly-willy, what's important is you are you ok" she asked hugging him tightly.

"Ummmm, yer, never better, why?" Krillin drawled looking at her with a perplexed expression.

"Well, you know you were hit by a truck" Maron stated like it was obvious.

"What no I wasn't" Krillin yelled looking at his completely undamaged body.

"Yes you were, you saved me don't you remember" she asked her concern return even more than before.

"No, the last thing I remember was you were about to get hit by a car" he said looking at her and realizing that she too was completely unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief seeing that she wasn't hurt.

"I was, but you saved me, jumped over the car than was hit by a truck" she replied matter-of-factly.

"Maron, doesn't that sound a little bit strange to you, if I was hit by a truck than wouldn't I be injured" Krillin said incredulously.

"Well you were then Bardock was with you and gave you something to eat and you healed" she chirped happily.

"WHAT THE HELL?" Bulma screamed from across the room. "You said he was hit by a truck Goku, he's not even hurt" Bulma continued foaming over with barley contained rage about such a cruel prank, but also relief that Krillin wasn't hurt.

A/N any guesses for what's going on with Piccolo and how Bardock healed Krillin. Review your thoughts ;).
