*Piccolos POV*
I'm meditating by the waterfall while Gohan splashes around catching fish… which I would be expected to eat… Kami help me.
I hunkered down filtering out all distractions.
Images flickered across my mind. Random things at first, snippets of battles, Gohan yelling at something then the images slow down only a little though; A young woman standing protectively in front of a child, smirking at a circle of attackers. Something told me she was too desperate to lose.
A fleet of ships. A distinct impression of fear. Something whispers to me; she needs your help…
Gohan leaped out of the water straight at me, tearing me from my vision.
"Surprise attack!" Gohan squealed."
"So you wanna play like that kid?" it's my turn to smirk. To my surprise I have to dodge the kid instead of retaliating, he's getting good. Two seconds later Gohan went flying into a tree, demolishing the stem.
I idly wondered how many times that's happened during training. Gohan doesn't move. I wait. I'm starting to worry 'Calm,' I force myself to count to five. 'One…Two…Three, oh what the hell!'
"Gohan?" I bellow "Get up!"
For an instant, he doesn't stir. My heart stops.
Then he raises his head "Ouch! Mr. piccolo you didn't need to go that hard!" he smiles.
"Hu! You didn't need to attack me." I counter, secretly relieved.
"Oh Piccolo, I'm hungry let's eat that fish I caught." He leaps up and gathers firewood.
I groan.
For a while we eat in silence… or not… I stare into the fire. A strong qi straks across the sky. No two qis .one is fluctuating…
Gohan looks up "Is that Krillin you think?"
"No." I growl, concentrating on the qi "Krillin feels…different."
Gohan frowns "One of themn feels... sick?"
Yeah." I grumble. "Trainings over go home."
He looks at me strangely "Won't we go check it out?"
"I will." I growled. Then both qis faded. They didn't want to be found.
"They vanished." Gohan gasped. It was remarkable qi suppression, suddenly dropping of the senses like that. I got the feeling the pair had good reason to be unseen. gohan frowns at me "Im coming."
I scoff "Fine."
We dive into the sky speeding into the afternoon sky. I can still see the woman from my visin standing defiantly over the scared child .i had a feeling I was about to meet her.
*Jaihns POV*
As we come closer to the surface, I can feel a couple strong power levels. I don't know when exactly I realized I could sense power levels. But at some point in that hell-hole I suddenly knew when I was outmatched, and when I could fight back.
I sensed a few over whelming power levels for an instant it was hard to breathe. So there was one or two aliens on this rock. No problem, it would be fine, we'd be fine. Nobody knew we were coming. Nobody knows we exist. They think we're dead.
Please.
I turned to Topple "There's a couple of powerful people on this planet. They might know."
His face dropped slightly "No flying?"
I shake my head.
"'Kay." He says simply pressing his nose against the window "Wow… its so beautiful…" he breathes "LOOK! Trees! And there green!" he's exited "Do you think we can have a pet?"
I smile broadly I always like fluffy things "I want something furry." I say.
He grins "And big! I want a HUGE, fuzzy thing! The thingy-er the better!" he squeals.
"Very poetic." I say dryly touching down fifty miles from a major settlement.
I yawn "Okay, I'm gonna scout around, you set up camp."
He nods seriously, fishing the bundled up tent from under the seat.
