Chapter 49: Assemble of fear.

Isabelle's heart had sunk so low she was walking on it, she was heartbroken at not being allowed to fight along side everyone all those months of hard training wasted because Bongo was to overprotective of her.

She reached the back porch pushing through the door passing by Poetry and Cyndel on the couch without a word.

Poetry looked up from Cyndel hearing the sons from Isabelle then seeing her running past.

"Isabelle what's wrong?" Isabelle ignored her running past she bolted up the stairs into her bedroom slamming the door.

"Its not fair why not, I can't bare if anything." Isabelle broke down into sated tears almost unable to breath at the thought crossing her young mind.

She jumped onto the lace bed spread drowning her sobs in the fabric, her discomfort from the encounter had faded but the pain was in her heart now.

Her face buried in the pillow she did not hear the faint steps approaching the bed a few words broke through her sobs.

"I can't let it happened again, I won't…"

A hand reached down coming to rest upon Isabelle's back.

Isabelle jerked up and turned around, after a silent pause her sobs started to flow again burying her flushed face in her hands.

"Its for the best, you must understand this"

Piccolo stood before Isabelle coming in through the window to avoid suspicion hearing her sobs sent daggers to his gut he could not bare to see her swollen eyes and tears they filled him with bitterness, he reached out gently stroking the light golden brown strands of hair of Isabelle's hair.

Isabelle felt his hand it filled her with warmth and yet more grief without looking at him Isabelle lifted off the bed grasping Piccolo around the waist submerging her face in his gi.

Piccolo felt her arms tighten around him in turn he placed one hand on her upper back, he then realized it was something more than just not being able to fight along side them that was troubling her he was going to find out what it was.

" Why don't you tell me what's wrong" He said gently almost to a whisper

Isabelle did not respond she only held on to piccolos waist never wanting to let go, to always feel the fabric of his gi against her face the warmth of his hands against her skin.

Piccolo pushed her away gently looking into her face, Isabelle looked away ashamed to face him in such a state she knew he could not stand weakness, Piccolo cupped her chin in his hand forcing her to look into his eyes his other hand held onto her arm.

"Tell me"

Isabelle held her sobs down feeling a lump form in her throat; she looked into Piccolos eyes his hand still cupping her chin as he kneeled down to her eye level.

She breathed a sigh swallowing the lump blocking that blocked her speech.

"I don't want it to happened again"

She managed to utter through her sobs, Piccolo was confused he did not understand he tried searching her beautiful eyes in their swollen state for answers, but she managed to hide them.

"What happened again" Piccolo said with a slight irritation that he suppressed from her.

Isabelle shut her eyes biting her lip.

"Loose you…" Again, she broke down in tears thrashing out of Piccolos grasp she walked to the window slumping on the window frame her sobs constant.

His mind unable to absorb what he had herd she was afraid to lose him again, the first time he could only assume being 10 years earlier the day he had left on his mission to eliminate Goku.

He walked toward her form on the window frame stopping.

Isabelle felt the warmth of Piccolos body come to a stop directly behind her, she felt ashamed for showing weakness to him sure that he would see her as a fool pass her off as weak and childish.

"You wont"

His warm hand caressing her profile he whipped the tears away slowly savoring the contact to her skin.

Isabelle slowly turned to face him he was not disappointed in her she felt the world had reached out its arms to her, but his words replaced the feeling even more.

Isabelle latched around Piccolos neck resting her face against his neck her tears diminishing; Piccolo again placed a large hand on her back as an embrace he could sense her relief and reassurance he was hoping she understood the dangers

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

Bongo watched as Isabelle ran toward the house her hands catching the tears flooding from her eyes, he felt a certain amount of guilt but it was drowned by the amount of responsibility he felt for her.

He was then conscious looking back the group that Piccolo had disappeared; he searched around seeing no sign of the namek.

Goku had seen the situation unfold turning his attention from the discussion of strategy he observed Bongo's tension grow when he noticed Piccolos absence.

"Bongo?"

Bongo turned at his name being called.

"We could use your help over here, can you spare a moment?"

Goku motioned toward the rest of the group.

Bongo nodded hesitantly glancing one last time at the house before joining the group. His mind not about to focus at the matter in progress.

"She will understand Bongo, I know it she is a smart girl" Goku smirked seeing all concern for the young girl Bongo possessed.

"I know Goku, but that will not stop me from worrying" Bongo sat with the group as the discussion went on about strategies.

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

The soldiers gasped in horror as the private who opened the door stood with his mouth gapping and eyes wide in shock, through his chest were lodges three massive 6 inch claws ivory in color.

A low growl emitted from the dark training chamber, the soldier with the claws through his chest coughed up rich living crimson blood it ran down his neck dribbling to the green marble floor.

All watched in fear their trigger fingers frozen.

The claws jerked back tearing free from the privates almost severed body, he fell to his knees and finally hit the ground killed instantly.

The soldiers did not breathy at the sight before them knowing all to well it could have been any of them, The lieutenant stepped forward clearing his throat.

"We will be reaching earth in a week sir's Lord Tempo has requested you be released from the training chamber and prepare for the arrival"

They waited for a response.

"If lord Tempo requests it then it shall be done!"

A grizzly chuckle followed Slits words as he stepped out of the dark room his appearance sent shockwaves through the soldiers as did the appearance of Clip behind him, they walked past the stunned soldiers taking no note of the weapons that were aimed and loaded toward them.

Down the hall and toward bridge to report to their lord Tempo, Slit the larger of the two with his eyes watched as passing soldiers recoiled at their appearance repulsing as it was to them.

Taking no notice slit let the way reaching the bridge where their lord awaited.

"Ahh, you are here "Tempo hummed without turning to meet them.

"We are ready my lord what are your orders, when do we attack?" Saliva began to secrete from Slits lips along with clips.

Slit hissed grinding his tri clawed hand dagger like claws tinted a crimson shade, he approached his lord.

"Patience my pets I know your enthusiasm is great but we must plan this out" Tempo turned to face the two creatures, their size had doubled their eyes red as their lust for blood he approached the pair circling them he admired their new form.

" I want to enjoy it as much as you" Tempo mused observing the large shoulder muscles and long dagger like claws and spines penetrating from the creature's spines.

"I am sure this will me a triumph to remember" The evil lord smiled and began to chuckle they were close not days away from reaching earth's atmosphere.

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

At the end of snake way a certain ki of the east quadrant of the galaxy felt the disturbance enter his section.

"Ohhhh no bubbles he is here" King ki began to sweat still unable to understand what this evil power was he knew it had a familiarity but from where.

Bubbles hopped around the small planet waving his hands in the air hooting his in his native tongue.

"Yes, yes I know Bubbles we must keep the faith that the remaining fighters will be enough to stop this force"

King Ki looked to the sky he tried to be hopeful but they had no idea what this threat was meaning not knowing a way to its weak spot.
