Chapter 4: Enter Piccolo

"I don't get it. What happened?" Piccolo had arrived in no time and heard what happened. However, he was inside Goku's house. It has been almost two years since Cell was defeated, and Goku survived the Cell Game. However, Piccolo had left for meditation and training, but he always still kept Gohan in touch. It was unknown to him about the Sailor Guardians. He hasn't just met them yet. All he did was meditate and train, especially spending time with Gohan whenever he wanted to pay a visit.

"You mean you never meet them!?" Chichi screeched in shock.

He shook his head. "Goku and Gohan had never introduced me to them in person. They just mentioned them. What happened?"

"There is a girl named Usagi who almost attacked them," Chichi explained.

"Is she evil?"

"Not exactly, but the diary of Dr. Gero caused her evil because of the dark magic," Chichi said.

He blinked. "Dr. Gero? Wait... isn't he...?"

"They were trying to find out why Dr. Gero had written such a wicked book. We don't know how he wrote that, but we must find out." Chichi said.

"The girl. Was she corrupted by the dark magic?" Piccolo said.

She nodded. "It could be."

"Where can I find her?" He asked with arms folded.

"Probably the Red Ribbon Army castle that was destroyed by Goku a long time ago, but you have to be careful, Piccolo," Chichi said.

"Why?"

"She could be dangerous, but you have to be careful because Usagi will eliminate you if you cross the line with her," she warned the Namekian.

He nodded. "Alright. Let's see what I can do to help them."

"Good. It would be better for you to help them find Usagi since you have been gone for a while." She began to scold him for not paying them for a visit. He rolled his eyes in response. Then Piccolo left the house and took off flying.

At the same time, when Piccolo decided to help the Z Fighters and the Sailor Guardians, Usagi found herself exhausted from using too many dark powers. However, when she got away, she found herself in the forest far away from West City and Mount Paozu.

She collapsed to her knees as she dropped Dr. Gero's journey. Lastly, she collapsed her upper body to the ground, ready to take a long rest after attempting to kill her friends and ex-boyfriend. Just then, she closed her eyes, and dreamlessly took over.

"Well? Anything?" Bulma asked. She saw the Inner and Outer Sailor Guardians and Tuxedo Mask, except Chibi Moon, Sailor Saturn, and Diana, were injured.

"We found her, but she got away," Sailor Mars groaned.

"What happened?" Bulma asked, worried.

"Somehow, she used the dark magic book written by Dr. Gero and turned against us," Sailor Uranus said.

She blinked in shock. "What!? The Dark Magic, written by Dr. Gero!? That's impossible! There is no way an android would write such wizard craft books! He's just a scientist and an android!"

"It may be impossible, but we must discover why he wrote that," Sailor Pluto said.

"We also have to do something or else Usagi will make things worse," Sailor Neptune warned.

"It doesn't make any sense to me! Why would Dr. Gero create the dark magic? I bet he's the reason Usagi was corrupted!" Bulma said.

"That could be true, but we still need to know why he did. Ever since Dr. Gero had died, he would pass down to someone who will take his legacy." Krillin said who appeared standing beside them.
