So have the two brothers found a place to permeably live in peace?

Chapter 6: Weighed Determination

6 months had passed Piccolo and Bongo took up residence in the home of Adam and Vella most of their days were spent training each had their own reasons, Piccolo's was to become stronger more powerful to surpass all with his strength.

The two brothers had grown in appearance Bongo was still shorter than Piccolo due to his younger age, this did not matter for each of then knew size had nothing to do with their abilities.

Each had strengths and weaknesses, Piccolo would excel beyond comprehension in his mental ability to control his power, he had now doubled his flying speed, his attitude had not changed he was still focused as ever perhaps to dangerous levels.

Some days would end with Piccolo exhausting himself to the point of collapse, Bongo would always be there to assist him, it worried him that his brother was taking such risks & pushing himself to the breaking point.

"Come on Piccolo, you cannot do this anymore" Bongo dragged the limp body of his brother onto the back porch of the house. Setting Piccolo down he entered the house and returned with a bottle of spring water.

Bongos strengths were all of Piccolos weaknesses and visa versa, had gained strength and stamina, he could now jog from dawn till dusk and not collapse from exhaustion.

Lifting Piccolos head he put the bottle to his lips and carefully poured the liquid into his mouth, after a few seconds Piccolo regained himself almost chocking on the water, he sat up gasping for air.

"What Happened?" Piccolo asked finding himself on the porch he felt a hand come down on his shoulder.

"You collapsed again, why do you push yourself so hard? You might not awaken next time"

Removing his hand from Piccolos shoulder Bongo raised to his feet walking out into the afternoon sun and sat down on the grass in lotus style, He had begun meditating to try and assist in controlling his power.

*At least he does not follow me around like a lost cub anymore*

Piccolo thought to himself he rose to his feet in the past few days he had been considering training with weights, crossing his arms he considered what could be used that were easy to use and would not be a burden to care for.

"Hey Piccolo, do you think you could teach me how to fly now?" Bongo asked still in his meditative state.

"You will have to master your ki first" Piccolo uncrossed his arms and walked over to his brother on the grass, re-crossing his arms he stared out toward the prairie of grass before them, it stretched out like an ocean.

"Your strength improved over the months but you are no where near strong enough" without changing his facial expression Piccolo continued.

"It will take many many hours of concentration to achieve flight, if your not up to the challenge then give up now and don't waist my time"

The words `Give Up Now' hit Bongo he cracked both eyes open and took into consideration everything that Piccolo had just said.

"I will not give up, I will work as hard as is needed to achieve flight" He turned to look up at his sensei, whom was still gazing out to the prairie.

"I promise you wont be disappoint sensei" with that Bongo returned to his meditation

Piccolo half smirked impressed with his brothers determination he would put Bongo though his paces and was looking forward to it.

"Adam can you go tell Piccolo & Bongo they should stay inside tonight, the news said there will be a severe frost in the area tonight?"

Vella looked at her husband sitting in front of the computer, holding Isabelle in her arms she was now 6 months old her hair had grown slightly showing off the beautiful golden brown locks upon her head. She still had enormous brown eyes

Adam looked up from his computer to Vella.

"Yeh, ill go and tell them but I think they will stay out again like last time" Rising out of the computer chair Adam walked over to his wife and daughter.

"You can tell Bongo that he can sleep on the couch next to Isabelle's crib, he seems to be protective of her, like she was his sister" Smiling down at the sleeping baby in her arms Vella then looked back to her husband.

"That's an idea, but what do I tell Piccolo you know he is not really partial to babies" Adam kneeled down and kissed his daughter on the forehead gently smiling.

"Tell him that we would stop bothering him if he came in just this once, it seems to work when Bongo says that to him".

Adam smiled and in turned kissed Vella on her forehead the same spot as he had Isabelle.

Piccolo had not moved now staring at the setting sun; he then sensed Adam approaching he rolled his eyes in frustration. Adam approached the pair on the grass with every hope of them being reasonable.

"Hey you two how about you come indoors tonight its going to be fairly cold, Bongo you can sleep near Isabelle if you like!"

Bongo turned and jumped to his feet it did not take much convincing for Bongo.

"Sure, I would love to…."

Suddenly a thought occurred to him would Piccolo be annoyed at this show of affection?

"Um... Piccolo do you mind?"

Bongo slowly turned with an anxious expression on his face to Piccolo that had still not moved.

"Whatever" With that Piccolo started walking out toward the mass of grass with his short legs brushing through the taller stalks.

"Just a moment Piccolo I would like it if you came in to the house as well tonight" Adam added as Piccolo walked away, this brought Piccolo to a stop he considered the thought for a moment"

"I think I will pass," and continued walking

Adam quickly added on to his previous sentence

"If you come in for this night only I promise to never bother you to come inside again"

Again Piccolo stopped and considered the proposal but to no avail.

"Like I said, I think ill pass" This time to escape the constant bickering from Adam Piccolo took off into the sky leaving a trail of ruffled grass.

Adam turned to Bongo standing by his side, smiling he knew Bongo was a delightful young namek he was always trying his best not to make trouble.

"I tried, Vella was worried about the frost tonight so are you going to come in?"

Adam turned toward the house still facing Bongo

"Yes I will come and look after Isabelle" Bongo returned the smile and they both turned toward the house to prepare the couch for Bongo, but he opted to meditate on the carpet.

Piccolo had been flying for a few moments he remembered the weights he had considered earlier, then it hit him in the past he had seen specific clothing made with weights.

Weighed training clothes shoulder pads were sounded promising Piccolo landed in a clearing between some black pines.

He raised his hand to his chest shutting his eyes he concentrated summoning up the right energy he released a load growl bright yellow glow engulfed his young body then it faded revealing a set of shoulder pads wrapped in white fabric with a long cape.

Piccolo had not counted on the weight of the clothing being a bit more than he could handle he plummeted down to the ground landing on his rear.

"Greeeeeaah, thank Kami no one was watching"

Piccolo set to work in getting used to the new weight on his shoulders. Training would be slow for the next couple of days

Please Review!!!!!

Will Piccolo be able to stand by tomorrow?
