Chidori the Fighter

Vegeta's Mercy . . . . . And His Rage

Dende suddenly had an epiphany! His previous sorrows suddenly filled with hope and joy, "I have an idea!"

Everyone looked at him.

"We can go to the Great Elder! He can help us! The Great Elder is Namek's leader. If anyone can help it'll be him!"

Krillin scratched his head, "Really? But what can he do?"

Dende looked a little frustrated but continued to smile, "The Great Elder has great power and he himself wields a dragon ball as well. That's what you're after, right? I'm sure the Great Elder would rather let you guys have it than the bad guys!"

Chidori suddenly bounced up with new found excitement, "Really?! You're sure? Then come on! Let's go! We're wasting time!"

Krillin stopped her mid-flight by grabbing her tail, "No Chi! You stay here with Bulma. I'll go get the dragon ball with Dende."

"Uh! But why?!" she whined.

"Because if any of those freaks come here, I'll be screwed!" Bulma screeched and begged the child, "Chidori! Please?"

Chidori groaned but nodded, "Alriiiiiight."

Krillin ruffled her hair and set off with Dende towards the Great Elders. Chidori plopped on the ground again and laid on her back in utter defeat. She craved a battle.

'When will I get to fight? It's not fair! I need to prove myself! And I can't do that here all cooped up in a cave protecting Bulma. She doesn't need my protection! She can hide in the cave! Geez'

Some time later

"Beep! Beep! Beep!" 

Chidori's acute hearing could hear the soft noise of the dragon radar.

"Hey Bulma . . . "

Her blue-haired aunt figure looked up from her magazine, "Yeah? What is it, kid?"

"The dragon radar is going off. What's happening? Did Krillin get the dragon ball? Do you think he's close?"

Bulma took out her radar to check and see what was happening," Hey yeah, it could be him. There's one dragon ball coming fast at us where Krillin and Dende left!"

"Awesome! That's great!"

Bulma suddenly didn't look as thrilled, "Hm. That's weird."

"What?" Chidori ran around her to look at the radar herself, "What's happening?"

"That Dragonball that was at that village Vegeta was at a bit ago. It's still there"

Chidori tilted her head, "You mean he didn't take it?"

"I don't know" the genius confessed.

"Maybe the villagers hid it away?" Chidori suggested.

Bulma hummed and shrugged her shoulders, "Hmmm. Possibly."

The half saiyan girl grinned, "I could go and get it then we'd have two dragon balls!"

Bulma gasped, "I don't think so, Chi! What if Vegeta is still there guarding it?!"

She smirked, "Then I'll just disguise my power level and leave without him seeing me! Please Bulma!" she begged, using the puppy eyes that always worked on Piccolo, "Let me just take the radar and check it out. Please? I'll be right back!"

Bulma gave in. Her big sweet eyes always worked, "Oh Alright. But get back as soon as you can, alright?"

She gave Chidori the radar and the little girl grinned, "Don't worry! I'll be back before Krillin ever finds out!"
