V trembled "they're early." She gulped falling to her knees, she should be more prepared for this, she should be stronger.

"What's wrong?" Gohan asked as Piccolo searched the sky for what she might have seen.

"They're here." V gulped staring up at Piccolo in horror.

"What, it hasn't even been a year yet." Piccolo tried to feel out their energy but he came up blank "Are you sure." Piccolo asked turned back to V.

V nodded "Yeah, it's not their energy I feel, at least I don't think it is." V tried to regain some composure, Raditz never would have put up with this behavior. V held her stomach as if she was going to be sick. "I feel it here, it feels like something bad is going to happen."

"I don't feel anything, V." Piccolo relaxed "You're just being paranoid.

V shook her head and shot to her feet "no, it's real. I know when they're coming." V swallowed hard and looked to the sky "I always know when they're coming."

"And you're absolutely sure?" Piccolo inquired.

V met his gaze unwaveringly and nodded "yes."

Piccolo wasn't sure he saw her as a true warrior yet but his gut was telling him to trust her.

"Then we'll be ready." Piccolo looked to the sky trying to feel their energies maybe they're not as strong as V believes.

"When you feel it, you'll know it." V promised turning back to her technique, after months and months of practice she still didn't have it right.

"No, save your energy." Piccolo advised "we'll need every advantage we can get in this battle."

"Mr. Piccolo." Gohan asked timidly looking down at his shredded attire.

"I suppose you can't fight like that." Piccolo place a hand on Gohan's head.

"Wait a second." Gohan shook Piccolo's hand off "my dad said he always wears the same gi out of respect for his master."

"What about it?" Piccolo asked still searching for the threat.

"Well, my dad didn't teach me." Gohan went on timidly "you did..." Gohan waited for Piccolo to understand.

"You want clothes like mine?" Piccolo's jaw fell open, he was completely taken aback

"If you don't mind." Gohan twiddled his thumbs in front of him. Piccolo smiled

Just like him V's voice floated into Piccolo's head again, he ignored it, it didn't bother him so much now that he knew she didn't know she was doing it.

"Sure, why not." Piccolo tried to imagine the look on Goku's face but that dream quickly vanished because Goku was so innocent and naïve he probably wouldn't have a single thought on it, he might even understand it. Just thinking about it made Piccolo ill.

Shaking the thoughts away Piccolo placed his hand back on Gohan's head, light surrounded Gohan, Piccolo caught stray feelings of longing and caught V staring at them but she wouldn't dare ask. Piccolo raised two fingers, she didn't even notice for a moment. The light disappeared and Gohan stood with a mini Piccolo outfit, minus the turban and cape but complete with a white head band and scarf. V stood in a similar outfit but without the scarf, Piccolo could feel she wouldn't like things too close to her neck.

"Team good guys!" Gohan cheered pumping his fist into the air.

Piccolo grumbled what have I started? V just stood staring at her outfit, she couldn't understand how he knew she wanted the same thing, or how he knew not to give her a scarf. V jumped at Piccolo and hugged him with all her strength.
