Prologue: King Piccolo Saga pt 4- Revenge for Tambourine

Disclaimer: I don't own Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z except my own characters

Chemistry-Deaf: There's a lot of snow outside. It's really pretty.

Saxophone stopped the tall kid from getting the carcass and want the Dragon Ball around his neck.

"Why is everyone going about this stupid thing? If it's get me food, I don't care. You can have it!" the tall kid replied, fumbling with the necklace.

"Hey! Don't give it to him!" the shorter kid yelled.

"Why not? He got me food unlike you, thief."

"Well, he is a nice guy, but he's allies with Tambourine! I cannot forgive him!"

"Still hung up about that?" They looked at Saxophone. "Then again, he didn't do a good job of killing you."

"Yeah, and he killed my best friend and my nimbus cloud! He makes me so mad!"

"So, you want a rematch?"

"Yeah! You could arrange that?"

"I have to contact my superior, but I will make sure he come." Saxophone moved up for better telegraphic connection and initiate it. Diamao? I have a problem. Saxophone repeated his statement two more time until Piccolo responded.

What is it, Saxophone? He sounded weary. Pilaf was probably annoying him again.

I found that kid that Tambourine said he killed. Saxophone send a picture of the wild hair kid he just saw.

WHAT?! He's alive? Saxophone almost broke the connection due to his Diamao's outrage.

Yes, and in full strength too. He wishes to fight Tambourine.

Why can't you fight him?

I'm sure you're aware that I am not fully healed right now. Plus, my orders were to collect Dragon Balls. You didn't say I had to fight them for it.

Piccolo scowled through the mind link. Fine, I'll contact Tambourine and send him to your location.

Great! I'll leave with the Dragon Ball when Tambourine gets here. Saxophone waited for Piccolo to close the mind link before coming down. He had a small amused smile. He noticed the taller kid already cooking his kill. He was about to walk up to him when the shorter wilder hair stopped him.

"So, is he coming?"

"Yes, he is. I will leave with the Dragon Ball when he gets here."

After several minutes, Tambourine arrives. He saw the tall kid finishing up the second carcass, Saxophone meditating while floating, and the wild hair kid eating fish. Saxophone already has the Dragon Ball around his neck. He opened his eyes as Tambourine landed.

"Heh, I was hoping you were joking when Diamao sent word that he's still alive," Tambourine snarled to Saxophone while pointing out to the wild haired.

"It's not my fault that you couldn't make sure he stays dead," Saxophone replied.

"Says the weakling. You can't kill them, so you had me to abandoned my seventh one to fight him again?"

"You're the fighting freak Diamao created. I'm not here to clean up your mess, winged buffoon."

Tambourine growled. "I don't care if Diamao took you in! After I kill him, you're next!"

"Whatever, I'm taking the Dragon Ball back." With that, Saxophone took flight back to the airship. He arrived as promised with the Dragon Ball. "Here, Diamao, the Dragon Ball." Saxophone pulled the Dragon Ball that the string broke. He gave it to Piccolo. He turned to Pilaf saying, "Where's the next one?"

"Ah, right! Mai! The radar!"

"Yes, sir!" Mai pressed the button for the globe to come down. Seven blinking dots were shown on the globe. Two were blinking inside the airship shape and three were already together.

"No way! Someone else is also collecting the Dragon Balls?!" Pilaf shouted in surprise.

"That's no surprise. That squirt probably have friends," Saxophone replied. "Looks like they found the third one." Indeed they have. The three dots were moving to a fourth one closest to them. "Since they are after that one, I'll go to the other one." Without another word, he took off.

Even though Saxophone knows the location of the Dragon Ball, it doesn't help that he has no radar to accurately pin-point that little thing. He sighed in irritation. Piccolo has been helpful with his coordinates in relative to his position though it was quickly cut off. He sensed his Diamao was angry and ignored his attempts for contact. He finally found it and quickly sped up to the airship.

As he got closer to the previous location of the airship, he noticed it wasn't there. He slowed down and searched for Diamao's ki. It didn't take long to find him. It was back at where the wild haired kid was and both kis were clashing. Worried for his Diamao, he changed direction. He found the airship with Pilaf and his minions scrambling around in fear. "What are you morons yelling about?" They stopped and stared at Saxophone who was crouching on the railing before stepping down.

"We-well, that kid managed to get a good hit on Diamao Piccolo!" Pilaf screamed in fear. Saxophone raised a brow ridge. "That kid's a monster!"

"I'm aware of that. You guys seem to not know that Diamao Piccolo and I are monsters as well." Saxophone walked pass them and looked down. He chuckled at their stares. "Besides, he seemed to have a hand of the situation." They ran back to see the action as Piccolo walked to hole. He reached down and picked up a very injured wild haired kid. Piccolo was quick to punch him in the face. Saxophone couldn't see the kid biting him, but he did see Piccolo throwing him down in anger. The kid scrambled away to create some distance before getting up.

"It's stunning! You are definitely stronger than any human I faced," Piccolo's low voice carried over the airship's noise. "Too bad for you, I have to kill you. But, that thought makes me glad!" When the kid put his hands out, Piccolo froze. Saxophone was slightly puzzled. He did hear "HA!" from the kid as a light blue energy ball shot from his hands to Piccolo. The smoke from the blast cleared up to show Piccolo uninjured. He wasn't even phased by the attack. "Well, I believe it's time to stop messing around. Time for you to die."

A/N: Soon, the Dragon Balls will come together!
