Chapter 32: Trivial or not they are there.

"No Bongo I can not believe you allowed this, he is not trustworthy he could hurt Isabelle or even worst how could you"

Poetry thrilled at the news of Isabelle's safety but frantic at why she had not yet returned.

Bongo grabbed Poetry by the wrists in an effort to calm her.

"Please dear, Goku has assured me that no harm will come to her you know I could never leave her there if I was not sure"

Calming for a moment to glance at Goku Poetry felt a little relieved but still wanted her friend here rather than there.

"How long will she be there, It feels like forever since I last saw her?"

Bongo released his wife's wrists, she new the time would be long between visits.

"I can not say for sure but it could be six months or more, but no harm will come to her I promise you"

Bongo watched Poetries expression drop tears about to whel up in her eyes, she buried her face in Bongos massive chest her tears falling freely onto his gi, the gi's material absorbed the teats like a sponge.

Breaking away from her husband she whipped the tears from her eyes and attempted to whipped them from Bongo's gi.

"Alright but if anything happens to her, please understand I don't know if I can ever forgive you for it"

Tears still in her eyes she looked to Bongo, he understood the words and would be sure that his wife's trust would be the first priority, nothing would happen to Isabelle.

---------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------

Goku joined Krillin, Gohan and Vegeta outside deciding it were best for him to leave the couple to themselves to talk through he resent events.

Gohan spotted his father jumping up he ran to him.

"Dad, so Isabelle is O.K?"

Goku rustled his son's hair reassuringly.

"Yes she is Gohan, piccolo found her just in time"

Gohan's smile increased he had blind faith that his sensei and was ecstatic and the notion of his deed.

"I knew Mr. Piccolo would find her, he would not let anything happened to anyone"

Goku smiled and was in agreeing with his son, Piccolo was never known to let anything happened to someone in need.

Krillin stepped forward with something to state.

"Are you sure about this Goku, I mean Piccolo might be a good trainer and everything but lets not forget Isabelle is well…"

Goku raised an eyebrow he was oblivious to what Krillin was implying, so did Gohan.

Krillin hung his head before clarifying what he meant.

"Isabelle is a girl, Piccolo has never trained a girl before"

Krillin held his hands out hoping he got through to the two Saijins.

"Ohhh don't worry Krillin, Piccolo will go easier on her im sure he won't use her as a punching bag"

Goku was positive that Piccolo would realize Isabelle's abilities and not push her to hard.

A new voice interrupted the conversation.

"You are so naive Kakarot, what baldy meant is that the evergreen will have other intensions on his mind besides training"

Goku again lifted an eyebrow again at Vegeta, ignorant of the Saijin prince's implications the thought didn't get through to him the rest of the afternoon.

The others sighed knowing it would be a long wait.

---------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------

A week later training at the cave was running along but not to the students liking.

Blood crammed Isabelle's throat as she hit the trunk of a black pine, the impact caused nearly a ton of snow to plummet down on her from its branches.

Breaking through the icy blanket she spat out the blood inhabiting her oral cavity coming toward her was the cause she struggled out of the snow and took on her defensive stance.

"Come on girl, you can do better this is pathetic"

Piccolo lunged toward her again knocking hr to the ground at the same time landing right on top of her they were now face to face.

Gritting her teeth from the weight Isabelle struggled to move but when she did she felt it the pain in her ribs it was very distinct; some of her ribs were broken.

"STOP please my, my, my RIBS"

Piccolo lifted himself off the girl beneath him examining her ribcage, 3 of her ribs were indeed broken, and this would slow their progress considerable. But he was also concerned; in this weather it could attract other illnesses as well.

"This will take a while to heal, but once it does we will continue this hard training you need to improve your endurance"

Isabelle gritted her teeth again when Piccolo gently lifted her to her feet, assisting her to walk back to the cave.

"Sensei?"

Isabelle managed to utter trough her gritting teeth.

"Yes?"

Piccolo looked toward the approaching cave.

"Why am I so fragile and damage so easily, it's not fair on everyone else I am useless"

Piccolo averted his eyes to Isabelle next to him as he supported her walking, he was a little surprised at her words but did not like the feeling he had seeing he in despair.

"You come first before everyone else, do not put yourself down you can achieve anything you set your mind to"

Isabelle looked into her sensei's coal black eyes they reflected some concern and compassion, she could not stop watching them they were beautiful to her.

Piccolo felt the familiar sensation he had for the past month or so.

*Her eyes are so… enthralling *

Feeling uncomfortable at the fixed stare.

Piccolo abruptly turned away at his own words he could not look at her any longer fearing he would lose himself in her eyes.

Isabelle at the same moment turned away, she felt enthralled at her sensei's concern and the gaze he had fixed upon her.

*I should not be thinking about these things, he is my teacher and that is all*

Reaching the cave they managed to settle down in their places it was mid afternoon the sun was now an orangey glow shinning across a pink lit sky.

Isabelle's wounds were dressed as she settled down trying to find a comfortable position to sleep finally finding it she drifted off into an early slumber.

---------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------

Winter had finally come to an end the snow was melting into nothingness; the suns rays grew stronger encouraging the spurting of shoots and shrubs of all kinds.

The Black Pine trees had regained their splendor spreading their needles out as if trying to reach out to one another; also the cherry blossoms were beginning to sprout their pink silk smelling splendors.

Isabelle ribs had healed well and she had even developed some muscle tissue to compliment her curvaceous body still not able to fly she was hoping to learn soon, she felt better than she had in years but in the past week or two her relationship with her sensei had become a little tense.

Piccolo had become harder of Isabelle, making her train harder and faster than she ever had, he felt strange inside him he had worked hard to suppress this bizarre feeling in his mind, his way of doing that was to push her away.

Isabelle was becoming very agitated at his treatment toward her, vowing to get away even though they had another month or so to train, besides she missed her family so, so, much especially her young niece.

But the real reason she felt so hurt was that she had become very close to her sensei than she should have, developed feeling that never existed in her mind for him desires that had never surfaced until now.

*I can not remove the images, his face, his body, his eyes I think I am in love with him this is ludicrous he could never ever care for me, he never has so why should he now*

Isabelle mused to herself whilst she took a short walk from the cave to the lake where she had almost died during the blizzard only a season earlier.

*I don't think I can stay here any longer, I miss everyone so much and Sensei is becoming harder to deal with*

Piccolo had followed his student to the lake he watched as she moved her fingers through the defrosted current; she seemed to be thinking almost sad.

*What is wrong with her, why do I even care, why have I cared so much about how she feels lately*?

Piccolo could not shake the warm feelings that had plagued his cold mind in the past few months about this girl, she had taken a hold upon him that even surpassed the love and care he had for Gohan.

He watched her absorbedly strange feelings within him, he questioned what does her skin feel like, her hair…her lips.

*What is this feeling, is this the love that Gohan spoke of, that Goku and chichi share? *

Piccolo kicked himself for thinking of these human emotions he flew away sighlently to gain control over his mind that seemed to be controlling him and arousing his heart.

---------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------

Cyndel had grown from a child of four to one of eight in only a season, her height was now equal to Gohan's and they had become good company to one another in the lonely and hard times to come.

It was early in the morning the darkness still covered the skies dawn would come in the next few hours.

Bongo was worried about the future would his family be safe from this treat, had he put them in more danger than was necessary from agreeing to help?

"I am worried that I have endangered out safety"

Bongo mused to his wife laying beside him beneath the covers of their bed intertwined in each others arms her hard resting on his chest, she glanced up at her husbands worried face.

"What do you mean?"

Bongo tightened his hold around Poetries waist looking down into her azure eyes.

"We could have avoided this whole business, if I had declined to help them"

Poetry smiled stroking her husband's massive arms feeling every ripple of his firm muscle watching intensively into his eyed having his full attention.

"You know that you could not have done that"

Bongo agreed he was too sincere and kind to have declined the world safety was at stake, he had to do whatever was possible to help.

Finally at piece with the thought their embrace tightened, as they found each other's souls once again for the remainder of the night.
